Eat your colours!

I asked her which type of cuisine should I feature next. I gave her a choice of:

Fish head curry

Vietnamese

Mille Crepe

Pancakes

Salad + Quiche

She ultimately chose selection #5 since that’s her least favourite from the list. But the Chinese Pow-pow salad in Marmalade (Bangsar Village II) is really delish! And it isn’t GREEN!

Colourful and refreshing, this salad is mixed in with a base of butter lettuce, tropical fruits – mangoes and papayas, yellow and red capsicum, alfafa sprouts, pine nuts and to add the pow-pow, deep fried rice noodle crispies.

And eggs! They are my comfort food especially after a hangover! You need to have ’em eggs even if they are whipped, blended and baked in a form a quiche Lorraine. A generous portion of warm quiche of spinach and bacon.

Since Marmalade is a family-oriented restaurant (i.e. you have screaming kids and babies, a play pen as well as hand drawn art pieces stuck on walls), the kids menu was equally appetizing albeit smaller portion. Ian had the breakfast set – scrambled eggs, baked beans, toasts and chicken chipolata.

He was getting a little impatient with me because I kept asking him to smile at the camera but he couldn’t wait to pig out on his mini meal. The food is so good, even kids know how to appreciate them!

You’ve had a horrid week and the weekend is approaching. You want to rejuvenate with a fresh glass of chilled OJ and food that isn’t too rich or filling, perhaps a kid and a MOM to feed, so where should you head to? Marmalade could fill in the little blanks for you. Bright and cheery.
